Private guest house on 2 Acres with pool and jacuzzi in Hope Ranch Annex.
The house has been rented full-time for 4 years so that's why the reviews are so old. Just back on airbnb for summer. It's a 600 square foot studio with full private kitchen, bath, patio and use of shared (just our family) pool and jacuzzi. Located in Hope Ranch Annex at Modoc and State. Near the freeway and bus line. On the bike path with a flat ride to Goleta and Hendry's beach or More Mesa (one big hill).
This is a nice quiet family area and not a party house. Teenage kids and dogs play in yard and in the pool near the guest house. Private back patio for breakfast, lunch, bbq. Internet available and plenty of off-street parking.
Walk to Hollister/State Street in 3 minutes - Creekside Bar and Grill, Talevi's, International Market, Valentino's, Java Station and Tacos.
Rural, quiet, special family neighborhood with horses, goats, chickens, dogs all within walking distance of great food and a quick bus, bike or drive to beaches, hiking and downtown. Includes use of bikes, boogie boards, surfboards, badminton, garden, tons of fruit trees for fresh OJ in the am. We are locals who can help plan your trip.
Not suitable for children who cannot swim well - pool is not gated.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Wonderful, friendly family, and dogs, cats and chickens for ambiance. Fresh eggs from the chickens and "picking" rights in the vegetable garden too. The private studio cottage is clean, cozy and quiet; it is perfect for one person or a couple. It is not a good place if you want to be close to downtown bars and nightlife or the Santa Barbara pier. It is a great place if you want to relax and enjoy a mellow Santa Barbara neighborhood. It is walking distance (more like a hike) to More Mesa beach. We will definitely book this place again.

The Jessup family provided a WONDERFUL Air B&B experience. Although we were late in arrival, they were gracious about it and welcomed us (along with their dogs), showing us where we were staying and making sure everything was up to standard. The guest house was not luxurious, but EXTREMELY comfortable (unless you're looking for a 5 star hotel experience, you should really enjoy it) and had a separate kitchen which we put to good use as they not only offered us fresh eggs from their chicken coop, but also vegetables from their raised garden beds right outside our accommodations! We made breakfast fit for a king every morning!!! The guest house was close enough to the main house that if we needed anything, they were right there to help, but still very private. We were allowed to walk around their property and enjoyed the gardens, fish pond, chickens (well away from the house), and especially the dogs. If you like dogs, bring along dog biscuits and they will adopt you as their own, that is, until you run out (grin). The whole family was very friendly and kind, giving us plenty of space for privacy, but right there in a crisis. I.e. they let us pick some prickly pear fruit from their cactus to bring home to our tortoises and when Laura got thorns in her hand, Shannon was right there to help remove them. The property and neighborhood is fairly rural, so it is really quiet and dark at night, but close to everything anyone would want to do in the Santa Barbara, Solvang, Los Olivos, and San Ynez Valley for wine tasting. The only issue we had, and it was no issue at all, was that their rooster - who's crow is very quiet as compared to every rooster Laura has ever met (a lot) and not disturbing at all - has a lisp. Instead of saying Cock-a-doodle-doo, it crowed Cock-a-doo-doo... a running joke for Eric and Laura. Laura is an artist and found a wonderful location in Solvang to take classes to further her skills. Despite the 45 minute drive there from the Jessups, she intends to stay with them again when she signs up for her classes. The experience was that good. We would find it hard to believe that you could find a friendlier or more accommodating host on Air B&B to stay with during a trip, and highly recommend them(URL HIDDEN)

First experience with AirBnB and my wife & I had a wonderful time at Jim and Shannon's. The property was exactly as described, our one-bedroom bungalow was tucked away from the main house and fully self-contained with all day access to the pool and very sun-drenched deck. We kept ourselves to ourselves a bit but the family were super friendly and very quick to share the best eggs you can imagine, fresh from their chicken coop! Can certainly recommend this place!

Sweet sanctuary for travelers who value tranquility, nestled between two horse ranches. Take a hike to one of SB's most secluded and beautiful beaches. Bike the beautiful hills of Hope Ranch. Soak up the love vibes of the land. Enjoy morning coffee in your private garden space.

Our guest cottage is decked out with all you need for a comfortable stay: a private entrance; bathrobes & slippers; a wildly comfortable bed; organic bath products; a full bath; a large screen television with Apple TV, and really good coffee, tea & organic treats for breakfast.
*For parties up to four people, there is an additional bed we set up in the spacious common area. This is a queen-sized aerobed that is quite comfortable and outfitted with all the same quality bedding the first bed has, but it is an air mattress, not a regular one.
To us, this property is a true sanctuary and we treat every part of this space with reverence. The feedback we've received is that it feels like a retreat center. Our intention is that all who stay here leave feeling nourished and well-cared for.

One of the great things about our neighborhood is that you can walk out the front door and hop onto a beautiful path that goes to the beach, with almost no car traffic involved! (The walk takes about an hour one way.) We are half a block off a bike trail that runs all the way to UCSB. And if you are a road biker, there is no better place than the rolling hills and coastal views of Hope Ranch, from which we are also one quick block.
For parents visiting their UCSB students, we are a great option, as getting to the university is easy from here.
We are 10 minutes from downtown, 5 minutes from Whole Foods and restaurants, 10 minutes from UCSB and 10 minutes from great hiking trails.

Amazing place and we had a lovely stay. Safia is a great host and was very helpful. Thankyou so much.

mark2015-09-18T00:00:00Z

The stay was absolutely amazing, Safia and her husband were great hosts. The guest house is beautiful with all amenities provided, including snacks and robs. I will definitely be staying here again my next visit!

Josie2016-05-01T00:00:00Z

Located in a very nice, quiet neighborhood. Safia went well out of her way to make sure we felt welcome and comfortable, everything from clear Apple TV instructions to delicious yogurt, granola, coffee, and water for breakfast. It is a gorgeous space, exactly as advertised. Having this Airbnb seriously enhanced our experience in Santa Barbara.

Emily2016-01-03T00:00:00Z

safia was a wonderful hostess. she answered communications instantly and was friendly and very attentive to our comfort and needs. the property is much as it looks in the listing -- very open and airy. the bed was comfortable and everything was in great condition. very clean. quiet neighborhood. the one downside is that the flat does not have a 'real' kitchen but it is set up so that you can still make coffee and tea and breakfast or a simple meal. safia even washes the dishes for you! there is also a super cafe very close by where you can eat. we had a very nice stay here and would recommend it.

rachel2016-07-16T00:00:00Z

Came in late at night from our wedding. They left clear instructions and the door open for us with a gift. Very clean, inviting and cozy! Would definitely stay again. Also they provided some great yogurt and granola for breakfast, in the room!

Parker & Kimberly2016-05-31T00:00:00Z

This place was lovely!!

Bunni2015-06-26T00:00:00Z

We really loved our stay last weekend at Safia and Gregory's beautiful oasis in the paradise that is Santa Barbara. The space was tranquil and comfortable and our hosts went out of their way to make sure we were content. We also got an intuitive reading from Safia which we were both super impressed with... Highly recommend the Luxury Santa Barbara Guest Cottage!

Greg2016-02-08T00:00:00Z

My fiance and spent one night at Safia's guest home and couldn't have been happier or more comfortable. The space is bright and airy, quiet and peaceful and had everything we could have asked for. The delicious fancy yogurt, granola and chocolate candy bar were a nice little treat. We were able to spend some time enjoying cocktails in the nice backyard guest area. Her home is close enough to take an Uber to nearby restaurants/bars on State street but far enough away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. Would definitely recommend her guest home if you're looking for a great place to stay in SB.

This space works best for guests who will be out and about during the day for the majority of their stay. Our attached guesthouse has a queen bed in the bedroom and a queen futon sleeper in the living room / kitchen. This unit shares a wall with our laundry room (not accessible to guests), so you may hear running water at times (please let me know if this is ever bothersome, as I sometimes do laundry before and after my 9-5 job and I don't want it to disturb your sleep). There is a full bath and kitchen for your use. Please be aware the backyard is shared space and others may be outside using it during your stay.

Everything was great about Lydia's BnB. Well stocked with everything of high quality. Loved the bbq area and the views.

Di2016-05-25T00:00:00Z

The guest house is entirely amazing. The pictures don't even do it justice, surprisingly enough. You can tell it was recently built up and redone, the tags were still on the microwave, and the fridge was spotless. Very quiet, and you pretty much have the huge deck to yourself (and yes, you can see the Channel Islands unless the marine layer is heavy). Very, very good neighborhood and Arroyo Beach is about 10 pleasant minutes away. We would stay again in a heartbeat!

My husband and I had a beautiful stay at this guest house! It was our first time using Airbnb and we were beyond satisfied. Our sweet host, Lydia, was attentive to every detail and made us feel very welcome. The ocean view was incredible and with cooler weather we enjoyed the outdoor fireplace as well. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. Also, we couldn't get over how quiet and peaceful it was! It was fun to learn that our host also shared a love for sea glass and even told us the best beaches to find it. We hope to be back soon! Thank you Lydia!

Jimi Sue2016-01-19T00:00:00Z

Lydia provided a fantastic experience for the week that my fiance and I stayed at her beautiful home. The ocean sunset views from the terrace were unobstructed and very beautiful. Lydia has a great system in place that makes arrival very easy and the unit has everything that you could possibly want. Highly recommend.

You won't be disappointed. The host, room, location, and neighborhood were fantastic. I had a wonderful/relaxing experience in what felt like the comfort of my own home

Matthew2017-04-09T00:00:00Z

MK is so kind, you instantly feel very comfortable around her. Her Dogs are also very sweet and very quiet. The room and bathroom are huge, you never feel squished in. The colors of the room are warm and calming and the bed is so super comfy! MK is really quick to answer any questions before, during and after your trip. The windows offer so much light and adds to the spaciousness of the room. MK adds a lot of small touches from little soaps and shampoos to big fluffy towels. Even though you are attached to their home, you feel like you have your own private space. I will definitely stay here again.

Aimee2017-05-07T00:00:00Z

There are not enough wonderful things to say about our stay at MK's beautiful space. For starters, it felt like our own private apartment with a separate entrance and bathroom. The space is bright, clean and open with windows overlooking the backyard filled with flowers. We traveled with our dog Cooper, and MK did everything in her power to ensure we all had the most relaxing weekend possible. She even arranged for a dog walker/sitter for our pup so we could have a nice dinner alone. MK went above and beyond to ensure our stay was a memorable one. She greeted us during our late check-in on Friday and stayed up to give us a tour of the property, our room, and even took a short walk with us and our dog around the beautiful, quiet neighborhood. She supplied us with exceptional service and even went as far to offer her own picnic basket and hiking bag for our adventures! We mentioned we were thinking about a sunset picnic, and the next thing we knew MK had packed us a basket with all the essentials inside! So unbelievably thoughtful and kind. She was such an extraordinary host. Her place was gorgeous and well suited for us and our 1.5 year old pup. Even if you are not traveling with any furry friends, this is an ideal spot based on the location alone. It was less then a 5-10 minute drive to downtown and just a few minute walk to an amazing little coffee shop that we ate at twice. We would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the Santa Barbara area and we will 100% be staying here again! MK we truly cannot thank you enough for such a magical weekend.

Noel2017-04-23T00:00:00Z

This is a beautiful master suite with access to a large backyard, great for dogs and people too! We walked to the local coffee shop and took extended walks on the Oberon Trail which is just steps away. We enjoyed wine tasting in Santa Barbara in the afternoons and relaxing at this beautiful home in the evenings. Highly recommend, especially for those traveling with dogs.

Jennifer2017-04-14T00:00:00Z

Very gracious hosts.

Michael2017-05-14T00:00:00Z

Our stay was great from beginning to end. M.K. was very responsive to our questions regarding pets and when we checked in we could tell right away she is a great host and a true animal lover. The property is in a great location in an accessible, but quiet area. The living area is very spacious and clean. Additionally, M.K. set up snacks and also a pet bed and water bowl for our two dogs, which we definitely appreciated. We couldn't ask for a better experience and will definitely book here on future trips to Santa Barbara!

Very quiet and peaceful space with lots of privacy and charm. Super comfortable and luxurious. Sit on the quiet deck and listen to the breeze in the palms. Bike path, grocery store and beach all nearby. Double occupancy only. We don't encourage three people to stay. Please contact us regarding bookings of more than two. One King Size and one very comfortable full bed.

Our neighborhood is very relaxing. Parking is easy and there is no hussle bussle. Just enjoy the birds, the beautiful trees, bike path, walk to Moore Mesa Bluff or go to the beach. Shopping is a short drive away along with fun restaurants.

One of the nicest Airbnbs I've stayed in. The king size bed felt so comfortable and luxurious. Communication was excellent. I would say many more wonderful things but most have been said multiple times. Highly recommended!

More Mesa Beach
Directions
More Mesa is located west of the city of Santa Barbara, between Hope Ranch and U.C.S.B. Take U.S. 101 to the Turnpike Road exit and go south (towards the ocean). Turn left on Hollister and travel east to Puente Drive. Turn right on Puente Drive and go 3/4 (three-quarter) miles until you come to Mockingbird Lane (on your left side). Park on Puente Drive near Mockingbird Lane as Mockingbird Lane is a private street and has a strict parking restriction which is enforced.
Then walk to the end of Mockingbird Lane's cul-de-sac and take the trail on the left side. The path winds through a large field to a wooden stairway which descends to the beach. The walk through the field will take about 10 minutes.

We enjoyed our 4 weeks stay in Los Feliz very much – and the spring in Santa Barbara/Goleta. We managed without a car, and we appreciated very much the bikes that Kerrie let us borrow. The grocery store (Turnpike shoppingscenter) and bus stop was very close. And we loved the bike path which led us to Goleta beach several times. The appartment is small, but ok. The bedroom is quiet, and the bed is wonderful. The kitchen/livingroom is small, but since we either sat working at the kitchen table or sat outside on the patio (or went out eating) we didn’t miss the livingroom too much. The Wifi was terrific - that meant much to us since we sat working a lot in the house. Kerrie and Cole are really interesting and very nice people. We hope to see them again.

Review from my mother, who stayed at the Annex: I rented the Cozy Annex from January 15 through March 15, 2014. I thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Annex. The outdoor fenced in private area with the gazebo, and the surrounding trees and bushes almost extended the visual space of the unit. I loved listening to birds chirping early in the morning when I stepped out of the kitchen to sip my tea. The location was excellent both for shopping and to enjoy the outdoors. I will always remember the beautiful sunset at the More Mesa. I was also delighted to find my favorite food stores nearby. I was able to make delicious supper with the hot pad and the toaster oven that I brought with me I am looking forward to renting this place again.

Enjoy your own private bedroom in beautiful Santa Barbara. The bedroom includes a queen size bed, small desk/vanity and closet for storage. The bedroom window looks out on the front yard and if you leave it open, you will have a nice cross breeze at night.
The bathroom is across the hall from the bedroom and comes with your own bathtub/shower. The bathroom also has a vanity and is stocked with a hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Includes single cup coffee maker and coffee!

Santa Barbara is an easy town to get around, and at our place, you're central to both Santa Barbara and Goleta and most attractions just a $10 Uber or taxi away. The house is located in a very safe and quiet neighborhood with plenty of street parking available.
The best thing about this space is that we're close to some of your favorite outdoor activities. We are just a few blocks away from Santa Barbara's main biking/cycling path (0.25 miles). We're 0.75 miles away from the More Mesa bluffs, a protected nature reserve that is great for a morning or evening walk, and 1.25 miles from More Mesa beach - a very private beach that will let you get away from the crowds.

More Mesa is a lovely neighborhood with access to the beach, the main bike path that goes all the way to UCSB, grocery stores, and easy freeway access. There are 2 local coffee shops (Java Station and Goleta Coffee) that are both within walking distance and a gas station is also close by.

Completely remodeled and refurnished in the last part of 2013. Engineered hardwood floors and new carpeting in the bedrooms. The large master bedroom has its own bath with dual sinks. Two additional bedrooms: one with queen bed and one with twin daybed and pop-up trundle. Second bathroom in the hall. Comfortably sleeps 6. Colorful landscaping that invites butterflies and hummingbirds, private back yard patio with BBQ and outdoor fireplace. New washer/dryer in 2014 and two adult bicycles with helmets for use on nearby bike path.

The location makes a perfect stay-over choice for academics or parents visiting UCSB. A neighborhood school at the end of the street has a sports field, basketball hoops, swings. Very fun for kids! We are also near the bike path that can take you to Santa Barbara and the Goleta beach.

House is exactly as described and more! We found this place to be very user friendly and quite comfortable. Doris communicated with us before our trip and made us feel welcome in her home. All instructions for the home were provided and easy to understand. The outdoor space was absolutely delightful and tranquil, complete with beautiful landscaping and comfy furniture. The house was in a great location right several blocks off the main highway and no more than a 5-15 minute drive to anywhere in Santa Barbara you wanted to go. Our daughter attends Westmont College in Montecito, and this was the perfect place to stay as it was only a few miles straight down the highway. The neighborhood was very quiet and the house was well stocked. I have stayed in several rental homes where I've had to stock my own paper goods, cooking oil and dish soap. That was not the case here, and I was so pleased! We had two adults and two teens and had more than enough room. Everything was perfect!

Karen2015-03-23T00:00:00Z

The hosts were very responsive and worked with our arrival schedule. The house was clean and cozy. I would definitely stay here again!

Aaron2016-02-23T00:00:00Z

We loved staying at Doris & Lara's house! It was spacious and very clean and was well taken care of. All the details in the listing were just as they said and they did provide good information prior to our arrival. Everything worked out great for the 6 of us that stayed there. We loved their home and the landscaping including their beautiful back patio and we really felt at home. We hope to stay there again in the future!

Susan2016-06-13T00:00:00Z

The house is clean and charming and the hosts were very thoughtful to our needs and responded quickly when we had a question about something. We would be more than happy to stay here again the next time we're in Santa Barbara!

Chris2014-10-19T00:00:00Z

I just want to say that my family and friends had one time experience in that lovely house. Everything is arranged very well, there is EVERYTHING you might need to cook, make a BBQ or play games with the family. We love it.

Ivo2016-10-25T00:00:00Z

The house was everything we needed and more. If your looking for a party atmosphere this is not for you. A nice quite family neighborhood, CVS Vons etc. within walking distance and a bike trail we found the next block over. This was a wonderful place to stay, that had all the comforts of home. We would absolutely stay here again.

This space is recommended for guests who have plans to be out and about for most of their stay, as it does not have a full kitchen or communal indoor space. Our attached private suite has it's own private entrance with a kitchenette, bedroom and en suite bathroom. The private entryway has a half bathroom (toilet + sink) and a kitchenette (includes coffee pot, mini fridge, microwave and disposable cups/cutlery). The other doors in the entryway are part of the main house where I live, and these will stay closed and locked during your stay. The bedroom wall is shared with our kitchen space, we stop our kitchen noise around 9:30/10 pm. Please be aware the backyard is shared space and others may be outside using it during your stay, please return all furniture to where you found it after each use.

While we are in a secluded neighborhood, we are very centrally located. The road to the listing is winding and can be confusing, so we do recommend arriving before dark if possible on the day of check in. You will be a 5 minute drive from the beach and 10 minute to downtown and the Funk Zone for some great music and night life. Kayak, paddle board, bike, and Segway rentals at the harbor. Go see the Farmer's Market fill downtown State St. on Tuesday afternoons or the Sunday morning Art Walk on Cabrillo Blvd. Hiking trails, shopping, and restaurants are all close. Check out the Santa Barbara Visitors Center for more information.

A wonderful place and a great view. Lydia was so sweet to meet and was very accommodating with items we may have needed during our stay. I'd totally stay here again!

Lydia was a great host, staying in contact with me throughout my stay, ensuring I had everything I needed. The room was as described, but pictures just can't do this backyard justice, it's incredible! I would highly recommend others to stay here or with Lydia in general.

Lydia was a great host. She was very quick to respond to any questions we had. I would highly recommend to stay here! The backyard is stunning!

Kim 2017-02-06T00:00:00Z

Lydia was very helpful in providing excellent directions so I had no problem finding the place even in the dark. She was always available for any questions I had, even when I was looking for my lost my wallet that ended up being somewhere else. The views are amazing and Lydia showed me where a great walking path around the neighborhood was located. This place was perfect for my stay.

Monica2015-12-27T00:00:00Z

My boyfriend and I rented Lydia's one bedroom guest room, it was really nice and had everything we needed. It had two restrooms, a small kitchen area, a bed and tv. The property was beautifull!!! The view of the ocean from the backyard was amazing!! Lydia greeted us when we arrived showed us around the house, she was very kind. I would definitely recommend staying at her lovely home.
